Hi there! I’m trying to add my site to the Summary section of my LinkedIn profile, but it doesn’t seem to be working. I contacted LinkedIn support and they say it might have something to do with OpenGraph and SEO. I disabled OpenGraph in the X settings and installed Yoast, but I’m not sure what to do with it further. It’s still not working. Does anyone have any suggestions?

On any profile, there’s a section called “summary”, where you can write a blurb about yourself to introduce yourself, etc. There’s an option to add content such as documents (resumes, etc.) or web links to the summary, which I’m trying to add my website to. However, I get an error saying “There was a problem processing your request”.

Hi there,

Would you mind providing a video recording? Is this related to linkedin website? Or site admin?

Thanks.

This is related to site admin – there’s something wrong with the meta tags of my site such that I can’t post the link to it on LinkedIn.

Hi,

When editing your home page or any page, scroll down to Yoast SEO section and add a title, description and an image.

See screenshot – http://screencast.com/t/ZWCO0Ke1Ns

Hope that helps.

I added those things but it still isn’t working 🙁

Hi Johan,

I’m not sure why the issue is still there as the open graph tags that are required by Linkedin are properly inserted in your site (see: http://prntscr.com/9xypwe). These are the requirements by Linkedin: https://help.linkedin.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/46687/ft/eng

I’d advise contacting Linkedin support again with regard to the issue.

Thank you!
